Well unfortunately it's not that simple. Your ability to get a grant depends on what type of grant you are looking for and what organization would provide it. There is a lot of confusion about what grants really are and how they are different from government benefits. There is no place I know of that you can just ask for money and receive it.

Grants are typically awarded to non-profits or government agencies for very specific purposes that are in the public interest. Those agencies and organizations then assist individual citizens or companies that apply for specific types of grants. Benefits are provided by the government for low income or underserved individuals or groups.

You can get a good overview of what kinds of grants are out there and how you find them here.
